Ultra-high Performance AR Glasses Optics, Display, System, and Platform
Kelly Peng, CEO, CTO, Founder, Kura Technologies
Presentation Abstract
Kura is building the best performing augmented reality glasses, global telepresence, and remote collaboration platform. Kura’s first product, Kura Gallium, has a 150° field of view, 95% transparency (4x of existing), 8K resolution, high brightness, and a compact form factor. This ultra-high performance is achieved by using a unique architecture with fully customized components, including customized micro-LED displays, ASICs, optics, and software systems. All this innovation was recognized during CES 2022 with Kura Gallium receiving the CES Innovation Award. With both hardware and software, the Kura Gallium is a total platform solution with an SDK available for developers. Kura boasts over 350 companies as paid clients (100% in-bounding) with Fortune 500 and Fortune 100 companies accounting for more than 50 of those. In addition over 100K orders are currently on waitlist.
